The singer tells Angie Martinez she thinks the estranged couple will get back together
Toni Braxton apparently doesn’t think that her younger sister, Tamar Braxton, is actually going to divorce Vincent Herbert.
During a radio interview with Angie Martinez, Toni described Tamar and Vince’s strained relationship to Baby Boy‘s Jody and Yvette (played by Tyrese and Taraji P. Henson).
“I think Tamar and Vince are just going through a ‘I hate you, Jody’ phase,” she said. “Remember the movie [Baby Boy]? ‘I hate you, Jody!’ You know that’s just their phase. And I think those two are going to get back together.”

Toni admitted that she didn’t have all the juicy details about all of the allegations being thrown around, including an accusation that Vince got another woman pregnant.
But, the singer said, even if she did know whether the rumor was true or not, she wouldn’t go public with it.
“It’s not my business to tell their business,” she said. “But if I knew, I wouldn’t say anything.”

Evelyn tells a different story
But while Toni seems to think this whole thing will blow over, their mother, Evelyn Braxton, doesn’t seem to agree.
In fact, around New Year’s, she was reportedly furious when she found out that Tamar was still in contact with Vince.
According to theJasmineBrand, Evelyn was “pissed” when she saw Vincent backstage at the Great Xscape Tour.
“She was blindsided when she saw him. She was heard asking people, ‘Why is HE here?’” sources told the site.
Apparently, Evelyn was especially baffled by the fact that Tamar could stand to be around Vincent after he was arrested on Christmas Day for spousal assault.

Evelyn Braxton has previously been very critical of Herbert, and told theGrio exclusively that he was physically and verbally abusive to Tamar.
“Everybody saw Vince as a knight and shining armor, [but] behind closed doors that’s a horse of another color,” Evelyn told theGrio. “I’m tired of [Tamar] being abused and misused.”
“If anything happens to Tamar, that’s Logan’s (Tamar and Vince’s son) loss. That’s my loss. That’s her family’s loss. I don’t want that kind of pain,” she added. “Enough is enough. I don’t care how much they smile. I don’t care how much they pretend.”
